Annotation: For more than 20 years, the problem of adopting a law on normative legal acts has remained unsolvable in the Russian Federation. The purpose of the work is to present the experience of legal regulation in the field of law-making in the member States of the Commonwealth of Independent States. Most of the CIS countries have established the concept and types of normative legal acts at the legislative level, defined the hierarchy of acts and the content of the law-making process. Many States adopted new versions of laws on legal acts in 2016–2018 due to the current trends in Informatization and digitalization of society. The article deals with the system of normative legal acts of three States – the Republic of Belarus, the Republic of Kazakhstan, and the Kyrgyz Republic. The author has studied the approaches of a number of CIS countries to defining the concept of a normative legal act. The significance of this analysis is due to the possibility of using the experience of legislative consolidation of the system of normative legal acts in foreign countries for the Russian Federation.
